Vacation Care

Our Centre offers a safe and harmonious environment where the welfare of the students is of primary concern.  All activities are delivered with an emphasis on low student/carer ratios, quality and age appropriate programing as well as great value for money.  The program is delivered by dedicated and caring staff and includes fully qualified and experienced teachers, sports coaches, faculty-based specialists and child care workers. 

The programs are tailor-made to suit students in Kindergarten to Year 4 or Years 5 to 8.  This allows parents to choose a day or two of Vacation Care which best suits their child’s interests or a week long program, which will ensure they are involved in creative, challenging and rewarding activities that have been matched to their stage of development.
Vacation Care operates for one week at the end of Term 2 and two weeks at the end of Term 4. For more information contact Sandra Scoular, OOSH Co-ordinator on T:9654 5135.
